Summary0010403: Give Demonaica the ability to kill recruitable survivors
DescriptionOne thing I've noticed is that Demonaica seems oblivious to the presence of free survivors. Maybe it'd make more sense if there was a random chance for Demonaica to kill a free survivor if he happens to pass over their square?

I find Demonica eating my survivors like candy now, especially when they almost always seem to get injured. If I was losing recruits at the same time, I doubt I would ever make the end game.

A little difference is, though, that Demonaica wouldn't be actively seeking out free survivors just possibly killing them if he happens to be on the same tile as one. It's not a big thing, it just seems odd to me for Demonaica to be chillin' on the same tile as a free survivor.

Edit: another related idea, how about rather than Demonaica being able to kill free survivors, instead the survivors start to flee and become displaced by a tile in a random direction. Haven't thought too hard about this, but seems like it would be a nice subtle way to create the illusion that the survivors are alive and have some form of self preservation instinct.

Balance wise, this would be cruel. Lore-wise, until those guys actually join your resistance the overlord doesn't feel a need to kill them.
